A 5 carat Number 8 Mine turquoise from the Karl Lee gem collection — old stock, pre-1950s, from a mine that no longer exists. The stone is sky blue with golden spiderweb matrix, the kind of material that becomes harder to find every year. Set in a 22 karat gold bezel on a platinum 950 base and band, with two 2mm brilliant white diamonds placed with restraint. The platinum isn't a decorative choice — against this stone, its cool neutrality lets the turquoise read at full strength.
Hand forged. Every surface finished by hand in the studio.
One of a kind.
